Cookie Policy
Last updated 11 October 2026
Kickthebookies is the analytical layer of horse racing — the statistics, prices and records behind every race, shown plainly so you can make your own call. This page is our cookie policy. Today’s racecards
Kickthebookies uses essential cookies and browser storage only — the minimum needed to run the site and remember your betslip. We set no advertising cookies.
What we set, and why
Everything below is needed to make the site work. Because it is strictly necessary, the law does not ask for your consent to it — but you should know it is there.
Essential (always on)
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
ktb_consent | Kickthebookies | Remembers that you have seen our cookie notice, so it is not shown on every page. | 12 months |
ktb_betslip_v1 (browser storage, not a cookie) | Kickthebookies | Holds the selections in your betslip between pages. Stays on your device; never sent to us. | Until you clear it |
__cf_bm and similar | Cloudflare | Bot protection and security for the site’s network layer. | Up to 30 minutes |
wordpress_*, wp-settings-* | Kickthebookies | Only if you log in to an account: keeps you signed in and remembers editor preferences. | Session, or up to 14 days if “remember me” |
What we don’t use
- No advertising cookies, and no advertising networks.
- No tracking or analytics cookies. We count visits with Plausible Analytics, which sets no cookies and collects no personal data: it does not identify you or follow you across other websites.
- No cookies from social networks.
Links to bookmakers
Some pages link to bookmakers. If you follow one of those links, the bookmaker’s own website may set cookies once you arrive there, under its own cookie policy. Kickthebookies does not set those cookies and cannot see them.
Fonts
Our typeface (Inter) is loaded from Google Fonts. Your browser connects to Google’s servers to fetch it; this sets no cookies.
Managing cookies
You can delete or block cookies and site data in your browser settings at any time. If you block all storage for this site, the betslip will not remember your selections between pages and the cookie notice may reappear; everything else will work.
Changes
If we ever change what we use, we will update this page and show the notice again.
